I am trying to unzip a file created in UNIX which contains files with
long names.  I need to unzip it in DOS, but the filenames are truncated
to 8.3.  I've been trying to research and I found a FAQ that stated that
you can't extract long filenames under DOS, but  an addendum was added
that you can with Info-ZIP's Win32 version of their Unzip product if it
is compiled with the djgpp 2.x compiler.  Can someone save me the time
and tell me if anyone's done this already?  Thanks

Gail
